Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06171269Recruiting
MRI-guided radiation dose reduction for prostate cancer
This trial tests whether using MRI scans to guide radiation can allow lower doses to the healthy parts of the prostate, potentially reducing side effects. It is for men with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer that can be seen on MRI and has not spread.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06215508Recruiting
Smartwatch and geriatric assessment for older men with prostate cancer
This trial tests whether using a smartwatch along with a geriatric assessment can help doctors better manage the health of older men with metastatic prostate cancer who are about to start a new type of hormone therapy. It aims to improve quality of life and treatment outcomes.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 minutes+ - NCT06931340RecruitingPhase 3
Adding chemo to hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial is for men with metastatic prostate cancer that has already spread beyond the pelvis. It tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug (docetaxel) to the usual hormone therapy plus apalutamide can help control the cancer better than hormone therapy alone.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06813898RecruitingEarly Phase 1
A New Scan for Early Prostate Cancer Recurrence
This study tests a new scanning method (rhPSMA-7.3 PET/CT) to detect prostate cancer recurrence when PSA is slightly high. If your PSA is low but rising, and standard scans haven't found cancer, this scan might help locate it.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05852041RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET-MRI scan to find prostate cancer before active surveillance
This early-phase study tests a special PET-MRI scan using rhPSMA-73 to better detect prostate cancer areas in men who would otherwise choose active surveillance. It may help doctors see where (and how much) cancer is present before deciding on treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06499870RecruitingPhase 2
Study of two drugs with radiation for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests whether combining two hormone therapy drugs, relugolix and enzalutamide, with radiation therapy can help treat very high-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective for men whose cancer has a high chance of coming back.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05800665RecruitingPhase 1
Study tests a new prostate cancer drug after prior hormone therapy
This Phase 1 study tests the safety, how the drug moves through the body, and whether it shows anti-cancer activity in men with advanced or metastatic prostate cancer. It is designed for people whose cancer has already been treated with certain hormone (androgen receptor) therapies.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06616155RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ruxolitinib and Enzalutamide for Resistant Prostate Cancer
This trial tests two drugs—ruxolitinib and enzalutamide—together to see if they can help men whose prostate cancer has spread and stopped responding to abiraterone. It is for those whose cancer grew quickly on abiraterone.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06778863RecruitingPhase 1
A study of CLSP-1025 for adults with certain solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called CLSP-1025 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the p53 gene (R175H). The drug targets this change to help fight the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07200830RecruitingPhase 3
Testing different schedules of a targeted radiation drug for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests two different dosing schedules of a drug called Lutetium-177 PSMA RLT, which delivers radiation directly to prostate cancer cells. It is for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and has spread, who have not yet had chemotherapy for this stage of the disease.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06925737RecruitingPhase 3
Study of I-DXd for metastatic prostate cancer
This study tests a new drug called Ifinatamab Deruxtecan (I-DXd) for people with metastatic prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. It may help by targeting and destroying cancer cells in a different way.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06785636RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New drug combination for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new drug (pocenbrodib) alone or combined with another hormone therapy (darolutamide) for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread. It is for those who have already tried Pluvicto and one other hormone therapy, but not yet chemotherapy.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05983432RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-B01D1 for advanced lung and other solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called BL-B01D1 for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer. It's designed for those whose cancer has continued to grow after standard treatments.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT03678025RecruitingPhase 3
Standard treatment for metastatic prostate cancer, with or without local treatment
This Phase 3 trial studies whether using the usual medicines for metastatic prostate cancer, plus a definitive local treatment to the prostate, improves outcomes. It may help determine if treating the prostate directly can benefit people whose cancer has not worsened after initial hormone-based treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06636682RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine for men with high-risk prostate cancer after surgery
This trial tests a personalized vaccine (FK-PC101) given after prostate removal surgery for men with high-risk prostate cancer. It aims to see if the vaccine can help prevent the cancer from coming back without the need for additional hormone therapy or radiation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT03866382RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus a targeted drug for rare genitourinary tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab and ipilimumab (immunotherapy drugs) plus cabozantinib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) can shrink or control rare cancers of the urinary/reproductive system that have spread. It may help by boosting the immune system and blocking cancer growth signals at the same time.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06855277RecruitingPhase 3
AAA817 with hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment (AAA817 plus a hormone therapy) against standard care for men with advanced PSMA-positive prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to a previous hormone therapy. It may be an option if you haven't had certain prior treatments.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–100 - NCT06172478RecruitingPhase 2
HER3-DXd for advanced solid tumors after prior treatment
This trial tests a new targeted drug called HER3-DXd for people with several types of advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is an antibody-drug conjugate, designed to deliver chemotherapy directly to cancer cells that have a protein called HER3 on their surface.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05946213RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter radiation treatment for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests whether a shorter course of radiation works as well as the usual longer course for people with high-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to keep cancer control while possibly reducing treatment time and inconvenience.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06879041RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a radiation drug for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug that delivers radiation directly to cancer cells. It is for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that has progressed after other treatments.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04423211RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery-recovered prostate cancer treated with PET-guided radiation
This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation guided by a PET scan (along with hormone therapy) can improve outcomes for prostate cancer that has come back after surgery. The PET scan helps doctors look for spots outside the usual radiation area so treatment can be tailored.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07711002RecruitingPhase 3
Saruparib with standard therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called saruparib, which may help keep prostate cancer from growing. It is for men whose cancer has spread and who have already received certain treatments. The study combines saruparib with a standard hormone therapy to see if it works better than the hormone therapy alone.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06257693RecruitingPhase 1
Prostate cancer implant trial before prostate removal surgery
